EACH FOOD IS IMPORTANT AND UNIQUE
Like every weekend, the Gonzáles family had done their weekly shopping. And like
every Sunday, chaos once again reigned in the refrigerator. All the food seemed very
quiet when they got to the kitchen, but as soon as the refrigerator door was closed,
they all began to give themselves importance and show off to others.
The eggs rolled having fun and they said boring to the boring yogurts can't move and
making the yogurts lose their balance and get angry I don't break easily. The lettuce
asked for more space in the vegetable drawer, she said, I need more space for my leafy
leaves to keep them green and fresh, the cucumber replied, I take up little space and I
can keep myself without having to take so much care of myself. The grapes argued
with the bananas about who was the healthiest fruit. The grape said: did you know
that I am the most important fruit, I have vitamin C and the banana replied, you are
wrong, I am more important because I have potassium. And, while vegetables and
fruits raised their voices and sowed discord, the milk, calmer, talked with the cheese
about the green meadows and the cows from which they descended. Our gods are the
cows because thanks to them we descend.
The chicken did not like how the fish or trout smelled and they told them to stay away,
they smell bad! They have an unpleasant smell! and did not want to be near them. And
the fish, joining forces, defended themselves by saying that they smelled of the sea.
They did not start off on the right foot to spend a few days together in the refrigerator.
And, if the beginning was not good, the hours that followed were not much better.
If at first the chicken had defended the field, the hake, the sea, and the trout, the river;
now they were arguing over their best recipe. The chicken wanted to be baked and to
be well accompanied by some nice crispy potatoes. On the contrary, she wanted the
trout to be grilled and for her the best accompaniment would be a very fresh salad.
Each one talked about himself and little listened to the other.
However, it was at night that silence was achieved, after hearing the mother of the
González family say to her daughter:
- It is best to have a balanced diet. You have to eat everything and varied, because all
foods are important for us to be healthy.
And that is how, finally, food understood that they are all equally important, because
each one contributes something good to health, and that they can be very tasty
whether they are cooked separately or if a good combination is sought between them.
they. Hmmmm?. That's lovely!!!!
